Career Benefits Participants in the ROTC program develop critical skills in management and leadership, which are valuable to any civilian or military career. Students gain confidence, self-discipline, and technical experience. New lieutenants will enter the workforce as a leader and supervise as many as 45 people, while being accountable for hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of assets. Even once you get out of the military, civilian employers want your leadership experience and technical knowledge. Brand-new Second Lieutenants on active duty earn approximately $38,000 per year, including housing, food and other compensation. Don’t forget—soldiers earn 30 days annual paid vacation while on active duty and have full medical/dental coverage. Part-time opportunities exist in the National Guard and Reserve, where officers are paid for one weekend of drill per month and two weeks of Annual Training. Guard and Reserve Officers will also receive active duty pay while training for their specific career field. There are sixteen basic career fields, called branches, and several specialized fields, listed below: Basic Branches: Specialized Branches: Adjutant General Corps Infantry Chaplain Corps Air Defense Artillery Medical Service Corps Dental Corps Armor Military Intelligence Judge Advocate General Corps Aviation Military Police Medical Corps Chemical Corps Ordnance Army Nurse Corps Engineer Quartermaster Veterinary Corps Field Artillery Signal Corps Special Forces Finance Corps Transportation Corps Aviation For those cadets interested in the Aviation branch, a series of special qualifications must be met. Prior to attendance at the Leadership Development & Assessment Camp (LDAC), cadets must take the Alternate Flight Aptitude Selection Test (AFAST) and must score a 90 or higher in order to qualify for further processing. You may be retested only once and no sooner than 6 months after the first testing. Also, you must not be older than 30 years of age at the start of flight training. At LDAC, you are required to take and pass a Class 1A Flight Medical Physical Exam. The basic screening criteria are as follows:
Once you have met these requirements and are accessed into the Aviation branch, you will incur a six-year Active Duty Service Obligation when you complete initial entry flight training or voluntarily terminate your participation in the course.
